9/11

I believe there is an on going battle between Al-Qaeda and America. It is a more quiet and behind the scenes operation rather than full out and in the open. Yes, Osama Bin Laden, the original perpetrator of the 9/11 attacks is dead, but the US economy is still on extremely shaky ground. The difference between America winning or loosing this battle will depend on how the government deals with the issues posed by our financial situation. Al-Qaeda succeded in scaring the American public, but as a result the American people grew more united after the attacks. However, now there is a lot of polarization in the government mostly about the economy. If we can unite again, I think this is a battle America can win.
